Gaming Rig?

[killzone5]

Hey, i was just wondering what your gaming rigs are. i like legions but experience lag and tend to stick to lower spec games. I'm thinking about getting a new computer but i'm really not sure about an able/affordable computer.

Legions is not really high demanding comparing it to other games so if you can't get at least 30 fps use Legions Lite first and see how it goes but anything below 60 fps is just annoying imo.

500$ rig would be enough to run legions on any settings and other popular games on low/medium as long as it as an adequate gpu, but if you are willing to spend more you can get something really nice for 800-1k$, and you should prob build your own rig, its fun and you save money So give a budget and the community can probably help you pick something out

Thanks! those are some pretty impressive examples, unfortunately i'll either ask my parents for it for my B-Day (not likely) or spend my entire summer income on it so i probably wont be able to get in on that T:A or Firefall action as soon as i like. My computers a glorified toaster...

You can build better yourself, go look at websites like NCIX and Newegg if in America.

Ya, you will have to get Windows to run legions. If you're at college or are studying some place, you can get a student version of windows 7 which is cheaper.
